AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING; THE DASHBOARD LIT UP AND THE AIR BAG SIGN SAID AIR BAGS DISENGAGED. THEN THE CAR SHUT OFF. I RESTARTED IT AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. I WANT TO KNOW WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED. I WAS FORTUNATE IN THAT I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY IN TOWN. BUT IT HAS SHUT OFF A NUMBER OF TIMES. I KEEP ONLY THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND IT HAS STILL DONE THAT. TO ME I THINK IF I AM DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE OR SOME OTHER HIGH VOLUME AND HIGH SPEED AREA AND THIS OCCURS AGAIN CAUSING AN ACCIDENT YOU WILL BE THE ONES TO BLAME.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 97 SOUTH, PASSING THROUGH REDMOND OREGON, THE ENGINE ON OUR JEEP COMMANDER SHUT OFF. MY HUSBAND AND I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO MAKE OF THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF. WE HAD NOT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE YET. WHEN WE DID RECEIVE RECALL P41/NHTSA 14V-438 I WAITED UNTIL I WOULD RECEIVE THE NEXT NOTIFICATION. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE OR A PHONE CALL SINCE THE INITIAL NOTIFICATION. I HAVE WRITTEN TO THE NHTSA, WRITTEN TO CHRYSLER GROUP LLC AND CALLED THE CHRYSTER GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER WITH AN ASSIGNED CUSTOMER CARE NUMBER 25941647. I HAVE WRITTEN TO MY CONGRESSMAN. I HAVE MANY TIMES CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER WHO HAS GIVE ME THE SAME RESPONSE, "THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE." IN GOOD FAITH I PURCHASED THIS CHRYSLER PRODUCT. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT CHRYSLER SENT ME A NOTICE INDICATING THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED AND SAFE TO DRIVE. CHRYSLER IS REMISS. MY JEEP COMMANDER HAS YET TO BE REPAIRED AND CONTINUES TO BE UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
P41 RECALL. BEFORE RECALL MY 2006 JEEP COMMANDER TURNED OFF ON ITS OWN NUMEROUS TIMES. THIS RESULTED IN ENGINE SHUT DOWN, NO ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ETC. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER SEVERAL TIMES. I GET THE SAME RESPONSE, PART NOT AVAILABLE. WHY? I AM TOLD THE SUPPLIER DOES NOT HAVE PART. WHY NOT?. THIS IS AN OLD RECALL, HOWEVER CHRYSLER IS REPAIRING OR BUYING BACK NEWER MODELS OF VEHICLES DUE TO FAULTY DESIGN. 2006 JEEP COMMANDER RECALL IS JUST AS SERIOUS AS NEWER RECALLS. THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH RESULTS IN ENTIRE SHUT DOWN OF JEEP, INCLUDING AIR BAGS. I WAS TOLD TO ADJUST SEAT SO THAT KNEE DOES NOT MAKE CONTACT WITH KEYS IN IGNITION. WHAT? I SUGGEST THAT VEHICLES WITH FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH BE A PART OF THE CHRYSLER BUY BACK OR REPAIR IMMEDIATELY. ALSO, TO AVOID FURTHER SERIOUS ACCIDENTS AND POSSIBLE DEATH RESULTING FORM FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH.
